It's an authentic sabre, for Prussian Cavalry or Artillerie officer, most likely of an off duty or walking out private purchase type. It dates from early 1900's to 1910, based on the single ring hanger nickel scabbard. Marked with Solingen quality mark "Eisenhauer", and oddly also military marks 62.A.3.127, which logically indicate 62nd Feldartillerie-Regiment, companie 3, weapon 127. That is surprising to find without other military acceptance marks.
It is however a tidy genuine period sword.

Thank you very much Anderson,for the usefull informations !
As Anderson says it looks good to me as well , but most likely not an officer with a rack number like that - with the Caveat that in wartime the picture tends to get clouded and sometimes we are left guessing. That said, officers were authorized swords of this basic pattern. But the hilts are slightly different with the basic Prussian government issue officer type cavalry sword a basket hilt, and for the artillery a basic (not ornate) Lionhead. Best Regards, Fred
Thank you,Fred !
